Use of the Golden Ratio when modeling plants

Found this on YouTube:


from:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio


Under the subtopic Nature:

"Adolf Zeising... [color=rgb(37,37,37)][font=sans-serif]

found the golden ratio expressed in the

[/font][/color]arrangement of parts[color=rgb(37,37,37)][font=sans-serif]

such as leaves and branches along the stems of plants and of

[/font][/color]veins[color=rgb(37,37,37)][font=sans-serif]

in leaves."

[/font][/color]


and under the subtopic Geometry:

[color=rgb(37,37,37)][font=sans-serif]

" at longitudes spaced by a golden section of the circle, i.e. 360?/

[/font][/color][color=rgb(37,37,37)][font='Nimbus Roman No9 L']

?

[/font][/color][color=rgb(37,37,37)][font=sans-serif]

? 222.5? "

[/font][/color]


Happy modeling! :)
